SMART STRATEGY WARNING

 Don’t just dive in and write a plan. Many individuals and companies are fooled by plans. They think that because it is written down in an impressive way, then it must be a good strategy. This is sometimes called the spurious authority of type. Somehow it all seems more convincing when it’s typed up.

 But that doesn’t mean the strategy is any good. If you are drafting a strategy, use a pen and paper. The very last thing you should do is to make it look pretty. Are you staring at a strategy that looks impressive but lacks proper substance? If so, rip it up and think of something more original and effective.
